"Sparking wines are typically the first wines served. Their effervescence has the ability to cleanse the palliate that is really second to none. Followed after the Sparking wine would be Crisp White. The Crisp White will refresh your palliate and not overwhelm your taste buds. After the crisp white you would do a Buttery White which is a little bit more viscus and will coat your mouth a little bit further and then followed by the lighter Reds followed by the heavier Reds so that the largest flavored wines are featured last so that they don't overpower the small wines and so that you still have the opportunity taste them. Ports, Sherry's and Desert wines pare very very well with your dessert course or make a wonderful a compliment after dinner as a final taste."
